NBA fines Doncic $10K for kicking ball into stands

The NBA fined Dallas Mavericks rookie Luka Doncic $10,000 for kicking the ball into the stands during a game earlier this month, the league announced Tuesday. Doncic kicked the ball after a made basket with three minutes remaining in the third quarter of the Mavericks' 111-99 loss at Indiana on Jan. 19. He was assessed his second technical and ejected.

Doncic, 19, is averaging 20 points, 6.8 rebounds and 5.2 assists per game and became the second youngest player ever to record a triple-double Monday in the Mavs' loss to Milwaukee. Doncic's line: 18 points, 11 rebounds, 10 assists.

He turns 20 next month. --Field Level Media
